The Bushmen, San, Basarwa or Khwe are indigenous people of the Kalahari Desert. They were traditionally hunter-gatherers, part of the Khoisan group, and are related to the traditionally pastoral Khoikhoi.
Their "click" language is Khoisan. Total population: 82 000 (mainly in Botswana and Namibia).
t was an amazing experience to stay one day with the Hadzabe. less than 2000 of these bushmen are still alive, their existance is treathened due to the scarsity of prey nowadays.
First Film was edited and narrated by Lorna Marshall and is comprised of footage shot in 1951 on the second Marshall family expedition to the Kalahari Desert. It is intimate in style, very carefully filmed, with a wealth of practical information about the material culture and structure of Ju/'hoan (!Kung Bushmen) hunter-gatherer society. The film allows viewers to see some of John Marshall's earliest film footage and provides an interesting comparison with the more sophisticated shooting found in his later work.
